Teaching the Female Lead to Be Thick-Skinned, Not Shameless Novel

Long Aotian finds himself cast as the villainous male supporting character in an urban wish-fulfillment novel—a role destined to end with him dying alone and impoverished, clutching half a stale fried dough stick. According to the familiar formula, his purpose is to harass the female leads and antagonize the male protagonist, driving the main couple's romance forward through his despicable actions. Determined to escape this grim fate, Long Aotian decides to rewrite his story by focusing on the female lead. He begins teaching her confidence and assertiveness. Initially timid and apologetic, she gradually gains self-assurance under his guidance. However, his lessons work too well. The once-meek heroine transforms from cautiously respectful to brazenly forward, eventually becoming shameless in her demands for his attention and affection. Now Long Aotian finds himself weak-kneed and tearful, lamenting that he only meant to teach her self-confidence, not shamelessness.
